What Is FUE Hair Transplant?

(PUNCH EXTRACTION)
FUE hair transplant or Follicular Unit Extraction method was introduced to the hair restoration industry in the year 2002 and has been the most popular hair transplant treatment people have been choosing ever since. Before FUE hair transplant method was introduced, strip method (FUT) was used for hair transplantation. Unlike the strip method that used to leave a scar on the donor area obstructing people from styling their hair as per their personal liking, the FUE hair transplant method leaves no visible scars.

FUE Hair Transplant – (Follicular Unit Extraction) The Procedure

FUE hair transplant (Follicular Unit Extraction) is one of the hair transplant treatment methods. By using Fue Hair Transplant Method, individual hair clusters (graft units) are extracted using a punch-tool. This punch of 0.8/0.9mm diameter is used to extract the hair along with the roots without causing any damage to the scalp skin. The punch tool is placed over the hair where it rises out of the scalp; then it is aligned bearing the direction of the hair growth and inserted, creating a round cut.

FUE hair transplant – A Challenging Hair Transplant Technique

A study of FUE hair transplant has noted this method as one of the most challenging hair transplant techniques, because it is difficult to view the graft through the scalp. This makes it complicated to align and position the punch tool and to measure the depth required to extract the graft. When FUE hair transplant method is executed manually, tools with smaller punch widths can be utilised so that every graft unit can be all the more accurately matched.  Some transection is bound to happen when the punch slices through the follicle under the skin. The FUE hair transplant procedure is done only by very few clinics across Hyderabad because there are very few hair transplant surgeons in Hyderabad in the city who are specialised in follicular unit extraction method.

FUE Hair Transplant Advantages:

• The FUE hair transplant itself is a safe procedure and is performed under local anaesthesia. FUE hair transplant method creates minimum scarring to the area as the tissues around the extracted follicles are not damaged and does not require any incisions – as a result, follicular unit extraction recovery is immediate and the time it takes is short.
• For the last few years, hair transplant services in India have advanced in terms of quality, hygiene, hair transplant before and after results and affordability. The FUE hair transplant method is known to be expensive only because of the time it consumes and for the cost of disposable equipment. However, it provides natural/undetectable results with no scars on the head and freedom to go ahead with their favourite hairdos.
